Outrageous "Catholic" Legislator From New Orleans Metro Area Proposed Paying Poor Folks to Sterilize Themselves!!!

Good grief. In what is no doubt a utterly shameless way to get out of hot water for advocating a State Legislative pay Raise, Republican John LaBruzzo has a new way to help the poor. Sterilize them!!!!!

It is so good to see how Rep LaBruzzo is wasting that St. Stanislaus College Prep School education, bringing mockery to the GOP and Louisiana, being a very bad Representative of his faith, and just being a moron.

The Picayune has the story here at LaBruzzo considering plan to pay poor women $1,000 to have tubes tied

Worried that welfare costs are rising as the number of taxpayers declines, state Rep. John LaBruzzo, R-Metairie, said Tuesday he is studying a plan to pay poor women $1,000 to have their Fallopian tubes tied.
"We're on a train headed to the future and there's a bridge out, " LaBruzzo said of what he suspects are dangerous demographic trends. "And nobody wants to talk about it."
LaBruzzo said he worries that people receiving government aid such as food stamps and publicly subsidized housing are reproducing at a faster rate than more affluent, better-educated people who presumably pay more tax revenue to the government. He said he is gathering statistics now.
"What I'm really studying is any and all possibilities that we can reduce the number of people that are going from generational welfare to generational welfare, " he said.
He said his program would be voluntary. It could involve tubal ligation, encouraging other forms of birth control or, to avoid charges of gender discrimination, vasectomies for men..

The Saints preserve us from this idiot.

There is another report here that gets more absurd!!!.

State Rep. John LaBruzzo, R-Metairie, fears Louisiana may be headed toward an economic crisis if the percentage of people dependent on the government is not decreased.His solution: pay impoverished women $1,000 to have their tubes tied so they will stop having babies they can’t afford.The idea came to LaBruzzo after hurricanes Katrina and Gustav when the state was forced to evacuate, shelter and care for tens of thousands of people."I realized that all these people were in Louisiana's care and what a massive financial responsibility that is to the state," LaBruzzo said. "I said, 'I wonder if it might be a good idea to pay some of these people to get sterilized.'"

Oh and get this:

LaBruzzo said he is only considering the proposal for now while he conducts research. But backlash from various groups was to be expected, he said.
“The black community will say this is some sort of race-based genocide. And there will be tremendous push back from the ACLU. They'll try to say these people are incapable of making such a decision when their life is in turmoil. That if you're dangling money in front of them, of course they'll make a decision that will affect them negatively.
"My argument would be if they’re incapable of making a decision whether to cease reproduction are they capable of raising multiple children to be good citizens? And if they're incapable, maybe Social Services should take their children."
The church also bears some responsibility for failing to speak out more forcefully against economically challenged women giving birth to multiple children, LaBruzzo said.
"I'm sure many of these people aren't going to church every Sunday and many aren't married before having children and sex. But the church isn't condemning their lifestyle. They’re just condemning anyone who's trying to do something about it."

I really think Rep LaBruzzo sadly undercuts his position that the "Church" and we know what Church he means while being a horrible example of his own faith

This blogger has much more to say at From the city that gave us David Duke. . . .


Thankfully I think we can be pretty sure that his proposed idea will never get out of committee

Update- I have not found anything yet that states explicity that this Rep is Catholic, However looking at his history as well as dad's 2006 OBIT it would very much appear he is
